Random musings about Verve Stamps, mixed-media and the artistry found in everyday life.

My Valentine

Monday, February 3, 2014

Hi friends! It's the first Monday of the month and that means it's contest time at Mojo Monday! And I've got a super fun layerl-icious (yes, that's a word!) sketch for you this week. Play along for a chance to win some Verve of your very own. And speaking of Verve... we just released a brand new set on Saturday, so be sure to hop on over to the Verve store and check it out.

I made this card a few weeks ago from scraps and embellishments on my desk and thought the layout was fun and frisky and would make a good challenge sketch. The stamps used are from No Matter What. I combined all the little heart images on one block and then used it as a border stamp for the soft sky, basic gray and blushing bride layers. Then I embossed the be my valentine sentiment onto a ticket stub and added some chipboard resist hearts that I sponged and a little heart brad that had been abandoned from another project.

Stay tuned tomorrow for the official Diva post-release blog hop with inspiration using our newest release!
